JAMES E. GILBERT AND GLENN \V. HARRIS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOBS1'0 GILBERT SLIP-SHEETING MACHINE COMPANY, OF CHICAGG, ILLINOIS, A COR-PORATION OF ILLINOIS.

SAFETY TRACK FOR SIlIUT-SHEETING MACHINES.

Application filed March 31, 1920. Serial No. 370,261.

To all whom it may c0ncern Be it known that we, JAMES E. GILBERT andGLENN W'. Harris, citizens of the United States, residing at Chicago.county of Cook, and State oflllinois. have invented a certain new anduseful Improvement in Safety Tracks for Smut-Sheeting Machines, of whichthe following is a specification.

Patent Number 966,739 to J. E. Gilbert, issued August 9, 1910,illustrates and claims a machine for taking care of sheets of printed orlithographed matter between the time they receive theimpression of inkand the time they are sufficiently dried to prevent offsetting whenplaced on a pile. Broadly speaking that machine includes the use of anintermittently moving and successively folding strip of cloth betweenwhich successive sheets of printed paper are placed immediately on beingprinted, and in which they are carried until sutliciently dry to beautomatically delivered from the machine, all as will more fully appearfrom the inspection of said patent.

The successive portions ofcloth between which the paper is held aredivided or marked one from another by cross bars 52 which in theoperation of the machine slide downward through guides or channels H andas fully set forth in said patent and when released from the bottoms ofsaid guides they travel with the cloth back to the tops of therespective guides. It will be noticedthat in said prior patent the crossbars 52 are on opposite sides of the continuous strip of cloth, and.that no provision is madeholding the bars in any given angular positionwith reference to the cloth from the time they leave the bottoms of thechannels l4: and l5 until they return to the tops of said channel ironsfor reinsertion therein. As the cloth when stretched between thesechannels or guides must necessarily be substantially smooth and level itis essential that these bars 52 always enter the respective guides inthe same relative horizontal position. Actual practice has demonstratedthat in the case of a machine ruiming at the high speed of winmercethesebars cannot be trusted to unguided and unaided automatically assume thecorrect positions for entry in the guides or channels 4A and 45.

The object of this invention is to provide a continuous guide or trackmechanism which will control independently each of r the bars onopposite sides of the stretched cloth portions from the time that theyleave the bottoms of the guides at and until they are safely reenteredin proper position in the tops of said guides. g This invention consistsbroadly in means or carrying out the toregolng ob ects and in means foraccomplishing each specific portlon of the result, that is to say, itcons1sts in detail mechanism more or less independently located atdifferent points in the machine, which materially aids in theaccomplishment of the broad general result. The invention particularlyconsists in such mechanism which gives thoroughly positive results, andin many features and details of construction hereafter fully set forthin the specification and claims.

Before taking up the description of the drawlngs it may be stated forthe information of the reader that the machine in ques tion iscommercially a large ailair occupving about sevenfeet in each directionand that the track mechanism which enters largely into the invention isonly about three inches wide by one inch in height and con tains anumber of parts only about three siX- teenths of an inch in thickness.The result is that it is impossible to show in thedrawings in a generalview all the parts constituting this invention without greatlydistorting the sizes of the novel parts or their being practicallyinvisible in the drawing. Because of this fact the single general viewof Figure 1 is more or less fragmentary in character but the descriptionand the detail drawings will make the matter entirely clear.

Referring to the drawings:

The general machine shown has a pair of oppositely disposed side frames20 connected by suitable cross members of no importance herein andtherefore not shown in an end view on the line 77 detail view on theline detail. Mounted in this general frame are front guides which foruniformity with the the prior Gilbert patent are designated 44 and rearguides correspondingly designated 45 performing in general terms thefunction of the correspondingly designated members in said prior patent.I i

As in said prior patent a continuous strip of cloth $22 is provideddivided by, successive cross bars 24- and 26, adapted respectively totravel down i dos 44 and 45 into successive sections re er to in theprior patents as print sheet supports and smut sheets,

This continuous trip of cloth carrying these bars 24 and is propelledand ulitima nly stretched to the positions of Figure 10 by power roller28 supported by truclts carried on wheels traveling in tracks 32 anddriven by a lever mechanism 84. 3G in turn driven by the cranl; or studon disk 39 and rotated by power shaft A i fully set forth i said Gilbertpa ent thi roller 28 is driven to the left as viewed i; Figure 1 farenough so that at each cycle of operation one bar 24 is deposited inguides 44, after which the roller returns to the right a sufficientdistance to the right f guides 45 so that the next adjacent bar 53 canbe and deposited in the guides 45, whereupon the roller 28 again startsto the left carrying over another section of cloth and deposits a newbar As in said prior patent the cloth engages at the bottom of themachine another roller 42 which per forms all the functions of theroller of said Gilbert patent as set forth therein, it being in theparticular case here illustrated moved to the left of Figures 1, 6, 9,13 and 14 by a dash pot-mechanism, (not shown) attached to straps orbelts 46 which dash pot mechanism is the subject matter of a copendingapplication heretofore filed by us. The modern commercial machinedescribed up to this point operates to move the cloth int-o, through andout of the guides 44 and 45 in the same cycle of operations set forthdiagrammatically in Figures 21 to 28 inclusive of said prior Gilbertpatent.

As heretofore, indicated, the principal on. ject of this invention isto, in the continuous movement of' the cloth, guide and control eachcross bar 24 from the time it leaves the bottom of the guides 44, whileit travels entirely around the pile of folded-in cloth 22 until it isready to re-enter the tops of said guides 44 and to simultaneouslycontrol the cross bars 26 as they successively leave the bottoms of theguides 45 and travel to the point where they are above the upperentrances of said guides 45 and are ready to be moved by suitablemechanism one form of which will be described, into said guides.

Broadly speaking, this result is accomplished by providing a normallyCOHtillllous track or channel designated as an entirety 50, leading fromthe lower exits of guides 44 to a point immediately adj acent to theirupper entrances, this with and without switching mechanismlocatedadjacent to the lower exits of guides 45 through .i .ich bars 26may be inserted in the tracks and carried around to the upper entrancesof guides 45 and the provision there of means for moving or switchingout these bars 26 from the tracks so that they enter the upper entrancesof said guides 45. Each trac 50, (there is one on each side of themachine) is, in order to allow for the normal travel of the roller 45?,made with an inclined section 50, shown in detail in Fig-v ure 10,immediately adjacent to the lower ends of the adjacent guides This por-Parallel to the bottom member and is so spaced therefrom as to retainthe cross bar 24 in the horizontal position in which it enters thetracl': when it was released from the pile of cross bars 24 shown inFigure 10 by the releasing latch mechanism 56. This latch mechanism 56,without novelty in this application, and therefore not described indetail, merely performs the same function as the correspondinglyreleasing mechanism that figure.

of said Gilbert prior patent. The track cover 5 5ladjacent to the bottomof guide 44lmadefiexible by the use oi. a spring 58 attached to thebottom of the guide 44 by any suitable means, tor instance as shown theleft asfviewed in i igure 10 thereby performing its proper function-inpreventing bagging of the cloth asthe bar 2% re leased which bagging ofthe cloth is well un derstood in, the art. to be very detrimental to theproper delivery of the printed sheets of paper i. e. to the properoperation of the machine. From the wheel 52 heretofore referred to thetrack 50 leads over the roller 60 correspond ng in function to rollers58 of "said prlorGllbert patent, the cover member 54 below newbecomingbottom member 5 lfljand then leads along the top of the machineto a point62 slightly to the right of the side walls of the'guides i l,at which point the confined cross bars. 2e are released and areturnedover by and around the roller 28 in the act of being deposited by saidroller in position to descend the guides 1 i.

' The member 54:, heretoforereierred to, as the cover of'section 50 oftrack 50 terminatesat a point 64 a little to the left of the lower endof the adjacent guide 45. Horizontally slidable in substantial alinementwith this end 44 is the lower side 66 of a lJ-shaped bar whose oppositesidearm is lettered 68 the two members being connected by the verticalmember 70 forming the bottom of the U referred to. This lower member 66iszreeiprocatably mounted on the under side of a stationary plate 72which forms the upper uidingportion of section 50? of track 50. I ising-from member 72 isfastationary post M to which is connected a spring 76connected at its opposite end to a post 78 carried on member 66 [andextending through an elongated slot 80 in member 72. The result of thisconstruction is that the spring76 tends to hold the U-shaped memberreferred to] in the position shown in Figure 6 and return it to thatposition when it has been moved to the position of Figure 1.3 by theroller i2 engaging it and moving it. as shown in The parts justdescribed are so located and positioned with reference to allthemovinglpartso f the machine that when.

The result ofthis-operation is that the bottom bar 26 has been transferred fromthebottom of r the pile in guides 45. into the position is ready to becarried continuously; in' that shownin thetrack-5O in Figure 6 where itt position around the wheels or rollers52 and upper 'Ii ZZtlDQ-ES of theguides 45. and ready to beswitohed or moved out of'the track 5 undermember 72 thus rendering theupper 60 up to the position where it is overthe ee -es is important in'that lower member 66 passesinside tracksurface smooth for passing bars 24 when they come along while uppermem-- ber 68 forms a convenlent guideand track tion of Figure 6 does notimmediately move f or is not immediately moved by the pull of the clothas just described, but-this is imi material so far as the invention ofthis ap-. .plieation 1S concerned. The portlon 54E of v e rack imm ia eyo 1 r ces 0 is J th t 1 ed tl ve ,ul 4"] r0 vided with set of slots andnotchesshown in plan view of Figure 3, the same being provided withclosing mechanism, timed to be in place as each bar 24 passes sothat forthat bar the track portion is practically smooth and timed to be openedin the .operation of the machine atlthe proper mement for the nextadjacent bar 26 to be carried down into the adjacent guides 45.

The device 311st referred to includes a transverse parallel sided siot90-451 of sufficient width and depth so that the ad-' jacent end of thecrossbar 26 can pass downward through it; a longitudinal slot 92 so thatthe gripping yaw mechanism 94,

which merely exemplifies one of many types which may be used, can passup through this slot 92 and talre the adjacent bar 26 into the space 96provided forthepurpose and carry the bar down intothe guide 45.

Furthermore, and very essentiah there is provided a longitudmal slot 98in which a closure bar 100 is adapted to reciprocate closes or bars slot90 and thus allows cross to anditowards guide 44. This slot 98 is ofsuch a length that when the member 100 is moved to the right to theextreme end of slot 98 slot 90 is opened vertically for the downwardpassage of bar 26. Member 100 is supported on and reciprocatable with aplate 102 seen through slot 98 in Figure 3, reciproeatably mounted inbrackets 104 for movement on the underside of member 54. This plate 102and block 100 is reciprocated automatically in the operation of themachine by lever arm 105 and'connect-' ing rod 106 carried on a shaft108. Rigid with arm 1 05 and forming a bell crank arm therewith is alever arm 110 connected by a link 112 to a reciprocatable cross head 114which actuates the gripping jaws 94 heretoforereferred to. This crosshead is reciprocated'through a connecting rod 116 driven by a cam andlever mechanism 118, 120, driven by shaft 40, heretofore referred to.These parts are so timed that when the top roller'28 is in the properposition at the top of the machine where the adjacent bar 26 shouldenter guides 45, that bar is on the track portion 54 over member 100,whereupon that member slides to the right to open the slot 90, whereuponthe jaws 94 simultaneously move up and grip thebar and carry it downinto the guides 45, during which time, the motion of member 100 isreversed, thereby closing slot 90 and keeping it closed until it is timefor another bar 26 to be moved into the guides 45. During theintervening time another bar 24 will have been passed along the trackover member 100 to point 62 ready for entry in guides 44 and in suchmovement will have had a smooth passage because of the proper closing ofslot 90 by member 100.

It is to be noted that the cam and lever mechanism is such that whenmember 100 closesv slot 90 it is held positively in that position andthe slot cannot accidentally open and let a passing bar 24 either catchor actually pass down into the guides 45. The detail mechanism foropening and closing the jaws 94 is not shown in detail because any sortof mechanism for this purpose might be used and this particularmechanism is to be the subject of a companion application hereafterfiled by us,
